Art Wanted, by rgc on Jul 12, 2016 14:23:38 GMT 1, Surely anyone likely to pay thousands for a Banksy has the knowledge to check the print over out of the frame to know what's being bought. The only people I can see being turned over by one of these is someone out to bag a bargain that doesn't exist unless you're trying it on with the seller. Cannot believe there are still people around who believe a seller could be stupid enough to sell a Banksy print for a bargain price. If its too good to be true, then it is. Buyers get lured in by thinking they are being clever with what they know - when the sellers are actually the 'clever' ones. That case around 7-8 years ago highlighted that when many people from this forum got fucked by that guy selling fake designer handbags.
Didn't know most on here had handbags?? Is this an urban art trend I have missed???

The more well known that they are not genuine Banksy Prints, the less likely anyone will get fooled.

The more well known that they are not genuine Banksy Prints, the less likely anyone will get fooled.
For me it's a childish thread without any issue about gossips ! We all know that they are not Vsnksy prints, it's clearly indicated in the announce, if some buyers then try to send it as a Banksy would mean that all the buyers are blind or stupid ! Stop this, this is a non sense, only supposition and phantasm. When I bought my first country print , I didn't know this forum at all, it was clearly said that it was only good copies of Banlsy prints , so I bought one for fun, yes for fun. I don't care about Banksy prints too : most of you not because you only think about money, speculation, value Rtc .., I prefer Banjsy activism , tenners , walls, jokes, Botti etc .. than the prints. So, you have no proofs that this famous invisible buyer of a 10000 quidsfir print bought it really And we are talking about rubbish. The only interfestin thing in This WCP ( not ) affair, is that package for shipping are really great and surely costs more than the print itself in time, professionalism and savoir-faire ! As said Fr , we have to be nuts - anyway this debate is for schoolboys And for the air - to buy a 10k print without anymore details ?! Impossible, you are a joke !

Art Wanted, by Deleted on Aug 6, 2016 11:39:12 GMT 1, I am brand new to UAA. A little collector based on Dubai, U.A.E.
The other day I was reading a post about an offering of WCP or BanksyCopy so I thought they were different editions on the most popular subjects.
I learn after that Pest Control has nothing to do with WCP or BanksyCopy, these are unlicensed re-productions, they are not authentic Banksy prints.
Only prints issued by Pictures on Walls, accompanied by a Pest Control Certificate of Authenticity are authentic Banksy prints.
So what is WCP - BanksyCopy?

Art Wanted, by Baby Dave on Aug 6, 2016 13:37:36 GMT 1, WCP is a person/group of people called West Country Prince
They produce replicas of Banksy prints. They are meant to be very good copies and are billed as using the same printing techniques, same paper and same magic fairies as what Banksy used.
They are marked up as copies on the reverse. There are usually heated conversations about the benefits of getting a WCP or another copy. If you search through the forum you will find them.
Get what you like and don't be guided by others opinions. Form your own and spend your money as you see fit.
Enjoy the forum and welcome!

Art Wanted, by Deleted on Aug 6, 2016 13:50:55 GMT 1, Is it right to steal someone elses art and re sell it for a lower price because some people think that altho not authorised by Banksy that who knows maybe banksy is OK with it cos he wants all his fans to be able to get a cheap version of his screenprints so they don't feel left out.
WCP should state publicly whether these fakes or copies or whatver are done with authorisation from Banksy or Pest Contol etc or not.
Plus it's up to the forum owner to ask for proof from WCP that these copies are done with permission from Banksy.
If WCP provides proof then thats good.
If WCP provides no proof then why should they be allowed to sell fakes on here considering all the posts about not allowing fakes etc on this forum.

My post wasn't intended to stir up feelings, I was just trying to answer the ops post.
I doubt WCP has any sort of permission from Banksy or PC. As for the quality, I'm no expert, hence not given a direct judgement of it.
I still think people should buy what they like, WCP or any other art.

So it's not ok to sell a decent copy of someone's work, when the artist clearly don't care about their images being used, but it's ok to sell their original work for over 350 times the cost price when the artist has spoken against it? Also people always preach that it's all about the image and not about the investment, if this is the case then WCP and the like should be greeted with open arms. After all regardless of how you get a Banksy print these days, Banksy himself is not gonna benefit from the sale. At least WCP is an honest criminal.

Sunday B morning was employed by Warhol for his silkscreen prints with good color codes...The serigraphs of the Factory were of poor quality (no machine, everything was done by hand).
The black pads are original editions, the blue pads are unofficial editions.
Warhol gave color codes its serigraphies then asked a Belgian company to stop the diffusison but too late.
Marylin by sunday b morning with black pads on the back is in the catalog raisonnรฉ of Warhol.
Bluegrass is not using the correct color codes.
Banksy never asked to WPC to work for him

The WCP are getting away with saying they are the same as the real deal but they are not they are not even close. All buyers of this worthless crap are being cheated. They are not the same ink colours paper and have no detail like the real deal. They get away with this because 99% of buyer can not compare the cheap shit next to the real ones.

The other ones you need to be told about are by the croydon crew who did Queen Vic Toxic Mary Napalm Monkey Queen BUT they are same as the WCP fake. They have more detail but are still the wrong paper colours ink. The croydon crew was the first bash before it they became WCP.

If WCP has contacted Banky management or Banksy and asked for permission to make and sell copies of Banksy's screenprints and Banksy does not reply. Not replying is not giving permission.
Normally people wait for confirmation before using other peoples art.
It's the same for music and writing etc. Bootleg CD's and DVD's being sold for a quid etc.
Who exactly is benefitting from the sales of WCP Banksy copies?
If Banksy sold some screenprints a few years ago for fifty quid each and the person who bought them re sells them today for fifty thousand quid. Thats all legitimate. Of course it's also one reason WCP is selling copies of these screen prints because of the thousands they sell for today.

At least WCP is an honest criminal. Dont he get droi de suite on prints when you buy it from auktions? And isn't it about respect for a great artist just as much as the money? I bet you can get a pretty decent oil copy of just about any artwork made for you. You could decorate your home with a mona lisa, that old guy doesn't benefit from you buying the original either.
The talk about fakes is always hard, cause the once that cant afford the real deal (in watches, art, furniture and so on) will always find some strange way to justify their buy and hold on to that, and every one else will always think they are idiots

Banksy could if he wanted too, put out some open editions Fairey style and if he chose to do that I would then be totally against buying copies. He seemingly has no interest in doing this, so I don't think it should be considered dirty or taboo to own a WCP.

He seemingly has no interest in doing this, so I don't think it should be considered dirty or taboo to own a WCP. So, if an artist choose to have limited editions it makes copies ok but if the artist makes unlimited artworks then its not ok? Sorry but just because some cant afford a Banksy (including me) it doesn't make it ok to purchase and hang a fake.
But then im from the wrist watch world where fakes is a clear mark of ignorance and stupidity, better a cheap real watch than a fake rolex/PP but perhaps artworks are seen on with other eyes even thou I dont understand why it would.

Just because someone who has got their children's future invested in a bit of paper and are scared that having readily available clearly marked copies on the market might somehow have an effect on the desirability of Said art, will not stop me from having an image on my wall that I like, and is in no way illegal or immoral. If you were an artist would you prefer to see copies of your images on a wall being enjoyed, or your hard work sitting in a flat file, only to come out when the owner feels it has made him enough money?
